-==== Virus Mask ====
-//Created by Hooman//\\
-{{op2_sdk:virus_mask_screenshot.png}}
-**Overview:** This file is (probably) used to display both the virus overlay on the map (the purple blight region) and the edge of darkness at nighttime. It shows the tiles along the top, and there is a clickable 4x4 region (well, two actually) where you can select which tiles are light and dark, and it'll display the results.
-When determining which tile to display, it examines 4 tiles in a 2x2 setup, using 1 bit from each tile to get a 4 bit index. (There are 16 tiles in VirMask.raw). It's probably easiest to think of the actual virus display as being off by half a tile.\\
